Re: PCOS questionFrom: Belle (anonymous@obgyn.net)Thu, 2 May 2002 00:23:15 -0500 (CDT)
Well, that is difficult to answer on a forum. It is not that it is more difficult when you are older, it is just that it is easier when you are younger. I know that sounds contradictory but that is it. The teen does not have as much to correct as an older person does and since the teen is still growing, it may be possible to interrupt the insulin abnormality before it gets set. Having said that, some women do not have a lot of symptoms at 27, while others may have many. The more symptoms you have, the longer it will take to reverse the symptoms. Hair seems to be the most difficult to correct. Since PCOS can lead to diabetes and heart disease as well as endometrial cancer, the sooner you begin appropriate treatment, the sooner you will feel better and the better your health will be.
